Squad29 Nov 2027

The knee: Jhonier Salas out for 64 days

64 days on the announcement, and a year of quiet, unwatched rehabilitation behind it. Fortaleza CEIF lose a player for a season; he loses something harder to name.

Squad29 Nov 2027

Jhon Velásquez breaks a bone — 144 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 144 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Market29 Nov 2027

Jhon Palacios hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Fortaleza CEIF can pretend not to have heard.

Squad29 Nov 2027

Andrés Arroyo falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

The dugout29 Nov 2027

Jhon Solís frozen out at Fortaleza CEIF

This is not rotation. Jhon Solís has not been in the manager's plans for some time, and nobody at Fortaleza CEIF is pretending otherwise.

Squad29 Nov 2027

Tempers go at Fortaleza CEIF

Jhonier Salas was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Loan watch29 Nov 2027

Juan Sebastián Arias has seen enough of Tigres

“I am grateful for the games, but I did not become a footballer to be somebody else's spare part.” He wants to be at Fortaleza CEIF, and 0 appearances in 21 say he has earned the hearing.

The dugout29 Nov 2027

Franco Pulicastro has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Fortaleza CEIF will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.

The dugout29 Nov 2027

Jéferson Medina knocks on the manager’s door

“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and Jéferson Medina trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.

Market5 Jul 2027

Juan Camilo Castillo puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Fortaleza CEIF, and it is not being withdrawn.

Market5 Jul 2027

Terms done: Michael Barragán is going

Fee agreed, wages agreed, and Bogota waiting with a shirt. Nobody at Fortaleza CEIF is pretending otherwise, and the supporters have stopped asking whether and started asking when.

Squad5 Jul 2027

Tempers go at Fortaleza CEIF

Andrés Arroyo was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Market5 Jul 2027

Fortaleza CEIF may not be able to give Santiago Cuero what he wants

It is the most legitimate ambition in the sport and the hardest for most clubs to satisfy. Santiago Cuero wants continental football; whether Fortaleza CEIF can provide it is a question about the next two seasons, not about him.

Transfer targets5 Jul 2027

Door shut on Roameth Romaña

Fortaleza CEIF asked and Once Caldas said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Loan watch5 Jul 2027

Jéferson Medina counts the days

“I watch every Fortaleza CEIF game from here. That says everything about where my head is.” The loan at Envigado runs its course, but his heart never made the trip.

The dugout5 Jul 2027

Jerónimo Barrera frozen out at Fortaleza CEIF

This is not rotation. Jerónimo Barrera has not been in the manager's plans for some time, and nobody at Fortaleza CEIF is pretending otherwise.

Market5 Jul 2027

Jader Martínez comes back from a loan that worked

20 appearances and 3 goals away from here, and a player the manager did not have in August. Loans are sent out hoping for exactly this and most of them do not deliver it.

Squad5 Jul 2027

A month that belonged to Jader Martínez

The young player of the month award goes to a 21-year-old at Fortaleza CEIF who has looked like the finished article for four weekends running. The next four are the ones that decide whether he is.

Market30 Nov 2026

Richardson Rivas wants European nights

The general version of this complaint is that a player wants more. The specific version names the thing: he wants to walk out under floodlights against clubs from other countries, and he has stopped pretending otherwise.

Boardroom30 Nov 2026

Wages eat 227% of everything Fortaleza CEIF earn

There is a figure at which a wage bill stops being ambitious and becomes the reason nothing else is possible, and this club has reached it. Nothing is left over for a transfer, a stand or a rainy afternoon.

Squad30 Nov 2026

Cristian Santander falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.
